The Beauty of God’s Law

From Sister Golden.

DEAR BRETHREN AND SISTERS: About three years ago I came to this place, and the no-law people began to talk to me about the commandments' being done away. I did not see at first why they wanted to prove them done away; but after a little I saw that the Sabbath was in their way. I praise the Lord that I was not left to believe their theory, but my eyes were opened to the beauty and harmony of God's law, and I began to read on the subject of present truth for myself, and let alone that which was fighting the law of God, because it was unprofitable to me. I am satisfied that we have the truth, the truth that will, if lived out, fit us for our Saviour's return. Christ is the good Shepherd, and his people know his voice. His people know not the voice of strangers, and therefore flee from them. I believe those who are following the traditions of men instead of the commandments of God are trying to climb up some other way to the sheep-fold, and such are termed thieves and robbers. My prayer is for light and wisdom from above, that I may know how to walk acceptably in the sight of my heavenly Father, and finally share with his remnant people.
Your unworthy sister. SARAH GOLDEN.
